The purpose of our pledge education is to teach new pledges what it means to be a member of the fraternity.  This is more than just wearing a badge; we want all of the members of our chapter to really love the group and want to give back to it.  Pledge education is a time for potential future members to realize how they will be able to contribute to the group once they are initiated.  It will last six weeks and is a time for pledges to get an in-depth preview of membership and make a final decision on their pursuit of membership.

During the pledging period, we will formally present Fraternity history and information to our pledges.  By planning and participating in various projects, pledges will learn the business operational requirements of the Fraternity.  Pledges will become familiar with the opportunities and obligations available and expected through membership, including: knowledge of basic local and national Fraternity history and operations; meeting procedures, ettiquette and organizational skills; special event and fundraising planning skills; and the Fraternity’s emphasis on personal and professional development of the individual.
